C-NEEON - NEO-BAUHAUS FASHION |
Thursday, 22 December 2005 |
Clara Kraetsch and Doreen Schulz, the designers behind the hot Berlin design label C-Neeon, burst on to the fashion radar this year after winning Europe's prestigious young designer competition, the Hyeres Festival. The popular duo's collections major in strong graphic prints with hints of Mondrian and silhouettes with intriguing volume, architectural structre, and asymmetric shapes. Kraetsh and Schulz met in 2001 at the Kunsthochschule Berlin college, where they then began their label. Sharp folds, tight pants, large lapels and tuxedo jackets covered in prints make a complete look. Nude chiffon tops stretched over prints and plunging striped V necks: sporty hip hop kids meet high tech fashion. Their vibrant leisurewear, which merges traditional tailoring and modern graphics, has been stocked since October at the hip Paris boutique Maria Luisa, at Galleries Lafayette, and in a few hotspots in Japan. For those who want to wear Neo-Bauhaus fashion, here's a unique opportunity! by Yvan Rodic
